Vive la Cité des Anges!

September 8, 2011

While visiting my family in Los Angeles, I discovered just how far we’ve come. There is no surer proof of the evolution of vegan cuisine than: the vegan croissant.

Mind you, I am not simply talking about any old crescent-shaped French flaky delicacy. Oh, no. It goes far beyond that. I am talking about three separate croissant-based meals.

1. Ham and cheeze croissant from Doomie’s Home Cookin

I thought I would never again get to experience the greasy grotesque joy of meaty & cheesy filled pastries. Thankfully, Doomie’s came along to fill all the junk-food shaped holes in my life. Fried chicken, shrimp scallopini, clam chowder – it’s all waiting for you on Vine Street.
